INVALID product key code

We had our son cleaned computer and Windows Vista Home Premium reinstalled. He had been use it then all of a sudden he asked the product key code. We walked into what was at the rear of his computer and it is still saying that it is not valid. We tried several times.

Have you done the re-setup, or have you taken it to someone as a computer repair shop?  If someone else did it, restarted the computer to that person and ask them to remedy this by providing a product key valid for the version of Vista that they installed. Boulder computer Maven

  • When reinstalling invalid product key

    I'm trying to reinstall my copy of Windows XP Professional OEM, without material change. Invalid product key!

    Help!

    Do not confuse letter B with the number 8, letter O with a Q

    Check the side of your PC case or at the bottom of the laptop for the
    Key OEM code. If there is a sticker with the code, it will probably not
    corresponds to what is displayed by the utilities mentioned above as OEM such as
    Dell use an internal key code when they build your PC.

    The key on the sticker code should be used with your Windows CD
    (who came if everything goes well with your PC) If you need to reinstall Windows.

  • Activation error: "Invalid product key".

    invalid product key message

    If you mean that you can not activate automatically, try to do it manually:

    To activate manually, go to start, search, and type in slui 4 enter.  Enter your country and press Next.  You will be on a screen with a phone number and a bunch of codes below.  Dial the number and browse automatic guests until you get to a human being.  Have your handy product code because it will be asked.  Explain the situation, but it's the same PC and only installed on this PC.  They should give you a code to enter on this screen to activate Vista.

    I hope this helps.

  • With 0xC004F061 error invalid product key

    I reinstall tatapi Windows8 on coment activation outside like below:

    The following failure accurred while tryng to product key used:

    Code:

    0xC004F061

    Original title: invalid product key

    You upgraded to Windows 8, but did not have an earlier version of Windows Installer (error 0xC004F061)


    If you see error 0xC004F061 when you try to activate Windows 8, this means that you are using a product key for an upgrade of Windows 8 version and a previous version of Windows wasn't on your PC when Windows 8 was installed. To install a Windows 8 upgrade version, you must already have Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows XP installed on your PC.

    If you have formatted the drive until the upgrade of Windows 8 version has been installed, you will not be able to use your upgrade product key to activate Windows 8. To activate Windows 8, you will need to install your previous version of Windows, and then reinstall Windows 8. Help with the activation process, contact technical support.

    We have installed Office 2010 on a system that died & want to move the software for my new system.  How to reactivate my product key Code

    Assuming that you had bought a copy of the sale at retail of Office 2010 (i.e., it not was not preinstalled by the manufacturer of the computer or downloaded and installed using a "product key card"), just install it on the new system and turn on normally.  In some cases, you may use telephone activation and explain the circumstances (i.e., the old computer is dead).

    Microsoft Office is not a step "off authorizes" as some other apps (Adobe comes to mind).

  • Halo 2 Vista Error Message "invalid product key".

    I bought Halo 2 for Vista last week. I installed, updated with the latest patch and connected with my Live account. When the program tries to download my Live profile it gave me the error "invalid product key". I contacted the seller on Amazon and told him my problem. He contacted Microsoft and verify that the product key was valid and he told me to reinstall and make sure that all software is up-to-date. I grabbed a spare hard drive and install a new copy of Vista and done all updates to Windows. Then I installed the latest drivers for video card, I installed Halo 2. I downloaded and installed the latest patch for Halo 2 and the last program of Windows Live. After all this (about 3 hours), I still get the same message. Anyone at Microsoft have a solution to this? I get the message after logging in to my live account inside Halo 2. I googled the question and it seems to be quite common, however, I have yet to see a fix. Help, please.
